FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel took the Nab Show stage Monday to announce a new public-private initiative led by the National Association of Broadcasters to guide the next steps of what is known as “NextGen TV.”
The “Future of TV” initiative will work to identify a roadmap to orderly transition from Atsc 1.0 to Atsc 3.0-based, essentially a set of more advanced engineering standards that create a unified experience for viewers. Long hailed by boosters and broadcasters as a savior for an industry beset on all sides by rivals from Netflix to TikTok, Atsc 3.0. Simply put, the new setup is capable of delivering ultra-high definition (4K) images, two-way interactivity, greater accessibility options, and multi-screen applications to televisions via over-the-air broadcast signals working in tandem with broadband.
Despite the utopian promise of Atsc 3.0, it has taken many years to get off the ground and remains short of wide-scale market penetration, with availability in roughly 60% of U.

Local public broadcaster Kcet was once again the major winner at this year’s Los Angeles Area Emmys, and then, when combined with its sister station Koce (“PBS SoCal”), the two outlets further dominated the awards. Kcet won eight Emmys this year, the most of any station, followed by Univision’s Kmex-tv, which won five. Telemundo’s Kvea won four, and then there was Koce, with three.
That means the combined Kcet/Koce won eight Emmys overall, easily leading all other stations and duopolies.
Kcet’s wins included L.A. Local Color, for “Transformation (Broken Bread),” as well as entertainment, for “Jazz City (SoCal Connected).” Other big winners included Knbc, for daytime newscast (11 a.m. to 7 p.m.) and Kabc, for evening newscast (7 p.m. to midnight). Kmex and Kvea tied for morning news (4 a.m. to 11 a.m.).
